Big Hockey Weekend for Bison Men’s Team

The Manitoba Bison men’s hockey team is halfway through their season as they take on the Alberta Golden Bears for the first time since October. The boys will host #1 Alberta in a two-game set this Friday and Saturday at Max Bell Arena.

In what’s expected to be a great fan turnout, the Bisons are ranked #2 in Canada West, with a 7-2-1 record on home ice.

Bison forward Mike Hellyer — also the team’s alternate captain — is hoping Alberta gets too aggressive for their own good and spends as much time in the penalty box as possible.
